connector match the pin assignments of the motherboard header. Incorrect connection between the module
connector and the motherboard header will make the device unable to work or even damage it.

• The front panel audio header supports HD audio by default.
• Audio signals will be present on both of the front and back panel audio connections simultaneously.
• Some chassis provide a front panel audio module that has separated connectors on each wire instead of a
single plug. For information about connecting the front panel audio module that has different wire assignments,
please contact the chassis manufacturer.
• PLED/PWR Power LED:
Connects to the power status indicator on

configure the way to turn off your system using the power switch
(refer to Chapter 2, "BIOS Setup," "Power Management," for more
information).
• Speaker (Speaker):
Connects to the speaker on the chassis front panel. The system
reports system startup status by issuing a beep code. One single short
beep will be heard if no problem is detected at system startup. If a
problem is detected, the BIOS may issue beeps in different patterns
to indicate the problem.
